One of my assignments for the day was a sand sculpting contest along Lake Michigan. Even though it was a gorgeous day, there were only a few participants, mostly under the age of 12. It was still great fun and who can complain about getting paid to spend an afternoon at the beach? My favorite kids were the ones pictured in the first photo who explained, “We really don’t know what we’re going to make. We’ll just wing it and see what happens.” Fantastic.
